And Eva says hi

He carried this thing for about 5 miles!😂

Happy gotcha day to Francine!! Getting Fran has been the best, most spontaneous decision of my life. She was one day from euthanasia at an overcrowded shelter, being looking over due to her shyness with strangers. Now she’s blossomed and has fun at doggy daycare, parks, and even hangs out with strangers when we have company over hahah. Take a chance on a little black doggy :)

I adopted Max at the end of 2020 after having to put down my old yellow Lab mix unexpectedly. He was the last big dog at the shelter. He was the victim of divorce. The couple had two dogs. They dumped Max at the shelter. It turned out to be a blessing for him, though. He's got anxiety and some quirks that you just have to deal with. When I first got him, he was super timid. Every noise scared him. I was told he was good with cats. He was not. He snarled my cat into a corner. I let my cat have a room for escape, and we worked on that. He still hates car rides. He gets really nervous any time we get in the car. It's been six years. It took him 5 months to settle into his new place. I won't get into details of all we went through and all of his issues. But, I cried at night for a few months because I was considering returning him. The thing that stopped me is I knew no one else would want him. I didn't want anything else bad to happen to him. We went to the dog trainer, and I also got lots of help from YouTube videos. I'm thankful I didn't return him. He's such a sweet dog. It's been great to see his confidence grow through the years. He just wants to be near me and be loved. Two things I'm happy to do for him.

This is our Sharky, a Bahamian Potcake, Velcro dog, fast as lightning, at the ready for treats, sometimes wears her ears in pigtails, lover of her sister Onion and our 2 cats, and always just a cuddly baby 💕

Jack (the taller one) Lab/Mini Aussie Shep mix finally got to meet Odin, my son and DILs Mini Aussie Shep/Sheltie mix. We were the only 2 dogs at the park so it was nice. The dudes had fun.

Just wanted to share my almost 9 year old that started fully black and is now more than salt and pepper. She’s a chi-rat as far as we know and has always been a basket case of issues (skin allergies, anxiety, grumpy). But overall she’s the sweetest, most precious girl and I just wanted to share the pictures I took today with my camera. She is my little model.
